Cordless mowing on a slope.
I've noticed that there's already a recent thread about cordless mowers, but I have a specific question which I hope will allow me the privilege of commencing a separate topic.
I have a lawned garden which is partly flat, partly sloped. One or two of the slopes are fairly precipitous. At present I cut the lot with a Flymo hover mower, and I have a hand mower which I occasionally use, just for a change, on the flat bits.
I've been looking at the battery powered mowers and like what I see, but my main reason for not buying one yet, apart from the additional cost, is that I'm not sure how well they perform on sloping lawns.
Anyone had any experience of cordless mowing on a hill?

Ive literally just mowed my cable into pieces so I’m angry enough to try something completely new instead! My lawn is not really sloping but with quite a few bumps and dips...
Tin Pot, the flat parts of my garden are pretty level and I couldn't tell you how a manual would cope with bumps and dips.
Maybe someone else here has relevant experience and can comment.
